No money in in pro or college lax. If you kid is not playing for fun then he should not play. Playing for scholarships is crazy. Your son can have fun playing lax and not have any issues with holdback at the club level or tournament level. The solution is to not play for clubs or go to tournaments that these clubs go to. It is well known the top clubs in the country (crabs, madlax, Laxachuses, team 91, Leading Edge, and many more) do this. Have you club play tournaments that these teams are not in. These teams are pray on the week parents who are chasing money that does not exist. Merit money exists at the DII and DIII level. I enjoy the banter of this forum as the crazy parents all think little junior is a d1 player. When he gets to college and has to eat breath and live lax, try to keep is grades up and you have a 1/5 scholarship, reality will sink in. I do appreciate the banter as it help with alleviate the stress of my job. Happy Thanksgiving. Please keep complaining. Love it.
